How can GameDev companies gain advantages from Gcore Cloud?
“Gcore’s support was instrumental in successfully expanding our game to a new region. They were always available to discuss and agree on our requirements in person and provided a dedicated team of project managers and engineers. We highly recommend Gcore as the best choice for anyone seeking reliable cloud services.”
“I’m happy with the Gcore public cloud, both in terms of basic functionality and the analytics and billing model provided. In your personal account, you can see visual graphs that display the statistics of resources consumed. It’s clear what and where we launched and how it works.”
“The performance of the hardware combined with the significantly better price-performance ratio of Gcore is the main reason that we don’t rent our infrastructure from one of the hyperscalers.”
Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on what the workstation is being used for:
- If you need workstations for developers to run a graphically intensive game engine, GPU-powered instances are a better choice. You can use Virtual Machines or Bare Metal servers with a GPU module. VMs are faster to scale, while our Bare Metal servers are more powerful.
- If you need instances for game designers or other staff members who don’t use a graphically intensive game engine, a standard CPU virtual machine would be a good choice.
You can deploy Unity, Unreal Engine, O3DE, CryENGINE, Godot, GameMaker, and other game engines compatible with Windows and Linux cloud instances.
You can develop games for any platform, including mobile, desktop, console, and web.
If your game infrastructure needs automatic scaling, Gcore Managed Kubernetes is a good choice. Managed Kubernetes can adjust your resources as player demand rises and falls, as you release new versions of games, and face unexpected workload spikes.
